Minneapolis apartments dwellers have an incredible opportunity to see the seven districts of the city on the Grand Rounds; a circular-shaped tour of the city that shows off unique landscape characteristics and its cultural resources. People who live in Grand Rounds apartments have over 50 miles of roadways, including bike and pedestrian trails, with traffic speed at a leisurely 25 miles per hour. Cross country skiing is also encouraged here in the winter. Begun as a preservation effort in the 1930s to preserve the intrinsic resources of Minneapolis, it now offers great enjoyment to Grand Rounds apartment residents. Regarded as one of America's most important scenic urban roadways, it was designated a national byway in 1998. Grand Rounds provides kiosks and interpretive sites for discovery about the area, and its designation from a rural byway. Many of the informational sites have been recently refurbished. Here on the Grand Rounds, residents of Minneapolis apartments can see a dozen lakes and ponds, two waterfalls, natural and planned gardens, creek and river views and four lovely golf courses. There are five Information Centers where you can learn more about individual parks and the byway itself. The included designated areas in the Grand Rounds are the Downtown Riverfront, the Mississippi River gorge front, Minnehaha area, the Chain of Lakes, Theodore Wirth, Victory Memorial, and Northeast. Each of these is a great respite from your Minneapolis apartment. Thanks to the low speed limit and prohibition of semi-truck trailers and buses, Grand Rounds apartment motorcyclists can enjoy the slower pace of safety as well.
